Sadly, RuPaul Isn’t Running For President

In recent weeks, your love of all things draggy and sparkly may have momentarily given you a brain fart — seeing all those mentions of Ron Paul everywhere certainly did remind us of a certain leggy ’90s icon. But no, as much as we wish it were true, it’s Ron Paul that’s running for president — not RuPaul. Ru made a special surprise stop in New Hampshire this weekend to clarify that he shouldn’t be confused with Ron.

“I’m not really a political person by nature,” he said, “though stepping out of the house in six inch heels and a wig is a political statement of sorts.” And would it really be all that weird for Ru to run? “This country was founded by a bunch of men in wigs,” he continued. It does seem strange, though — “You better work” seems oddly prescient given our current financial crisis. Maybe Ru should reconsider. [Raw Story]
